CWS 3 · CLE 6 — how the graded markets landed
FINAL

Chicago White Sox @ Cleveland Guardians

Wed 9/16 · 12:10 PM CDT · forecast weather in the grade · ump: confirmed
FIRST 5 INNINGS
no lean
model 52% under · market 52%
TOTAL
no lean
model 50% over · market 50%
the letter is how far we sit from the market, not how sure we are
THE PICTURE — what's driving the 1-point gapsized against each other · measured against the line — a stat the market already prices can point opposite its usual read
The home team's catcher gains extra strikes behind the plate52%
Umpire's strike zone has run narrower than the league this past year — fewer called strikesagainst the under22%
The home starter has thrown 495 pitches over 30 days21%
Team strength & form leans over — mostly the away teamagainst the under2%
The home team below league average in home runs, last 30 games2%
Market: First-5-innings Under 4.0 at -116 (pinnacle, quoted 11:00 AM CDT) · the full picture prices it -110 · model expects ~4.4 runs · divergence 1 point — band none.
SITUATIONAL CONDITIONSdetected for this game · not a grade input — anything that carries weight appears in THE PICTURE
Heavily used bullpenCatcher rest spotDay game after a night gameGetaway day (day game, then travel)
Honest row: grades cap at the band — extreme disagreement is as often our error as the market's. Moneyline gets no grade because our model hasn't beaten that market and says so. Graded against the line at grade time; the model was validated against closing lines. Weather from forecast; regrade if conditions flip. F5 grades ride a shorter history (2023-2025).
